Animals As Leaders have lined up a run of European dates in summer leading up to their stint with Between The Buried and Me. The shows include a handful of dates supporting Deftones. Dates follow:
Five years ago, Animals As Leaders guitarist Javier Reyes auditioned for Periphery. “He didn’t make the cut!” jokes lead guitarist Tosin Abasi. As he laughs and shakes his head, Reyes defends himself, “They were 20 years old, and I was 26. I was just not trying to hang out with 20-year-olds at the time.”
It was Reyes’ reluctance to hang out with 20-year-olds that initiated Abasi’s relationship with Periphery’s Misha Mansoor, resulting in the band’s debut album that has earned them international exposure. Today, older, wiser, and long past adolescence, Animals As Leaders are feeling the pressures that come with a second album – this time with drummer Navene Koperweis handling production duties.
